3 months 2 weeks and I'm stuck

Jul 28, 2010

Its been 3 months and 2 weeks since my surgery, I'm down 85lbs so far and I've hit a plateau.. Last dr's visit I only Lost 5lbs and now the scale is stuck .. it won't move and its Frustrating.. I'm getting my protein in and I'm swimming 4 days a week & doing water aerobic exercises so Its not like I'm not doing anything to make it not move..  Its VERY Frustrating especially when I still have OVER 120lbs to go for my goal weight.. I PRAY the scale will start moving again soon ...
I NEED to get this weight off and afraid it won't come off and I'll be stuck at 320lbs forever.  I'd be thrilled to get under 300 at this point.  I'm on crutches (permanently) so I can't jog or walk long distances that's why I stay in the water.. I Hope & pray that this extra weight starts to go away soon.. I KNOW it didn't come on me overnight but I'm doing all the "right" things now and I would expect at least 1-2 lb weight loss a week. I know if I was dieting without the RNY ,  I would drop at least 1lb a week so that's why its frustrating not to have any weight loss for almost a month now.  Anyway, Other then that I'm doing Great.. I feel relatively good.. Because of my weight loss so far, I have some hanging skin and my back has been really bothering me because of it.  Also harder to walk now because the loose skin in my inner thighs and upper arms..
I hope that gets better but the back is the worse pain now. I didn't have back pain when I was fatter.. I guess the padding helped me not to feel anything but now OMG when I sit for any amount of time, the coxcis bone (tail bone) Hurts SO Bad..
It even goes number but then when I stand up OMG the pain..  Anyway I hope & pray this gets better before it gets worse.

SORRY I'm complaining so much in this blog but I'm really not a happy camper right now.  Although I should be because I've never lost 85lbs before and I have now.. So I'm Thankful for that anyway..
Thanks for reading my blog...  hope better days are coming..
